_____________________________________
The Association is always looking for new topics and training to present to the membership. If you have a topic or training that you would like to present to the membership, please contact MLEFIAA Secretary Joe Picariello with the details and time frame. If you have suggestions on training you would like to see the Association present, don't hesitate to get in touch with one of the Executive Board members and pass along your thoughts. The suggestion should be realistic and appeal to the law enforcement firearms instructor or armorer. If you or your department has the facility to conduct the program, that increases the possibility of putting it on.
If any members would like to host one of our monthly seminars, please contact the Secretary by E-mail. Usually, the hosting member will make a training presentation on a firearms related training topic as the main part of the seminar, so if you have a particular class or special topic you would like to present to your peers, let us know as soon as possible.
Your facility should have a conference room/classroom large enough to hold 20 - 30 people. If you have a range facility and wish to host a live fire training activity we need to know how large the range facilities (i.e. how many firing points and how long).
